Invalid Email - not really - using gmail.com

Google allows you to add +something in an email, and it will ignore it. So for example, if I had jonsmith@gmail.com, I could use a jonsmith+1@gmail.com address and it would deliver fine to jonsmith@gmail.com.

This is good for when you are expecting spam or want to filter something. You can filter or delete any +1 mails.

In Amember I'm trying to use this to set up multiple accounts for my own use. (Amember is also a user database for me). But when I try to use it, I get this message:


* Please enter valid Email

I'd like this fixed, please. It is a valid email.

Thanks.

hmm... try editing common.inc.php - look for function check_email, I believe it was...

Hi miso,

I have this issue too.
I found the function in the file you mentioned, but I don't know how to understand the RegEx - do you know how to allow the '+' character in the match phrase?

Many thanks.
